Enhancing Disaster Response Capabilities

Haman County in South Gyeongsang Province will implement its "2026 Chuseok Holiday Comprehensive Plan" to ensure the safety of residents and visitors returning home for the holiday.

The county will operate a comprehensive situation room covering eight areas—including disaster safety, emergency medical services, transportation, and environmental maintenance—from September 24 to September 17.

Through on-call staff assignments in each sector and thorough situation management, the county aims to respond swiftly to any incidents that may arise during the holiday period.

The measures also include clearing household waste across the county, removing items left along roadsides, conducting safety inspections of traditional markets and multi-use facilities, performing joint price monitoring, and enforcing food hygiene regulations.

Additionally, the county will run a disaster and emergency response team, establishing a coordinated system among related organizations to strengthen its disaster response capabilities.

During the holiday, the county plans to minimize medical service gaps by operating an emergency medical response situation room at the public health center, guiding residents and visitors to open hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies.

A special traffic response team will also be in operation, monitoring major traffic conditions and providing travel information to those returning home, helping to alleviate traffic congestion and maintaining smooth vehicle flow.

County Governor Cha Seokho stated, "We will do our utmost to operate the comprehensive situation room effectively during Chuseok so that both residents and returning visitors can enjoy a safe and comfortable holiday."

Meanwhile, the county will also adjust household waste collection schedules, implement water supply measures, and manage transportation and parking in each sector, all aimed at minimizing inconvenience for residents and creating a pleasant urban environment.
